Party Highlights
-
What People Ate
We served hot pancakes fresh off the cast iron griddle cooked over a cast iron fire pot.
-
What People Drank
We set up a coffee and hot chocolate bar and served ice water aka "melted snowballs" as well. The hot chocolate is know as "sipping chocolate" and is amazing on it's own, but I ordered a variety of homemade marshmallows to go with it. For the coffee I had multiple Starbucks syrups available to make your coffee just right.

Desserts
I served a snowy branch iced cake from a local bakery along with powdered sugar and cinnamon doughnut holes.

Activities / Games
The activities were the stars of the party. I purchased 90 synthetic snowballs that were created for indoor use and set up two pop up tent cabins to let the kids have a snowball fight. A snowball fight is something we rarely get to have in central Alabama. The kids went crazy. Our second activity played into our outdoors/hunting cabin theme. I set up a "taxidermy" station, using the bark of the palm tree as reindeer antlers. These little art projects make precious Christmas decor, so when they were done the parents had a fun art project to take home as well.
